Keeper Yacht for Sale | 44 Hinckley Yachts Harbor Springs, MI

Keeper Boat | 44' Hinckley 2008

KEEPER is an outstanding example of the rare and beloved Hinckley Talaria 44 Motoryacht, and it’s even more rare history. Two owner and freshwater since new! Finished in 2008, she features all the right equipment and has been lovingly cared for her entire life by a Hinckley Authorized Service Facility. No expense was spared. Professionally maintained, KEEPER must be seen to appreciate fully. Her barely used interior has even been updated with luxury neutral fabrics. Given her condition, this boat will not be on the market long. She has only 556 original hours and has spent 9 months a year in heated storage, with only 3 months per year in the cold, fresh water of Northern Michigan. For the last 13 years she has spent her summers in an undercover slip in Harbor Springs during the summer boating months. She is truly a “time capsule” boat and should not be missed!
